Description WARNING: If you have not played through and/or completed Portal 2, turn away now. This image contains some wicked spoilers!

The impossible had been achieved! Not only had GlaDOS been defeated once again; she was also stripped of her power completely. Wheatley, the once vulnerable and clumsy Personality Core was now in complete control of the entire Aperture Science Enrichment Center facility. The duo's plan had been a complete success and all that was left to do was to escort Chell back to the surface. But something was amiss; Wheatley had not yet fulfilled his part of the bargain. As the elevator ascended, Wheatley's mood darkened dramatically; his friendly demeanour blackened. The power he now possessed corrupted him and Chell was about to suffer the backlash from this. The core began to rave on about how everything was his work and Chell simply watched as it all came to fruition. GlaDOS still concious after all this, mocked that it was Chell who had done all the work and not the Core. Wheatley grew spiteful of these claims and imprisoned her mind inside that of a potato battery; a toy for children, he laughed. But GlaDOS continued to bombard the now omnipotent Personality Core with revelations the latter refused to hear. Once the bitter truth finally shone through, Wheatley exploded in anger. His rage unwittingly casting down both Chell and GlaDOS into the forgotten chasms below, leaving the Core to his own devices. With Wheatley now in control of the entire facility, nothing was safe inside the Enrichment Center.

Now I'm not sure about you guys, but this was perhaps one of my favourite moments in the Portal 2 Single-player Campaign. It wasn't exactly as much as an unexpected plot twist as compared to a game like Bioshock or Spec Ops: The Line, but it was a fantastic one nonetheless. The game had built up Wheatley to be this clumsy, but sweet character who was to be with the player until the end. But as soon as he took control of the entire facility, he became a monster. A brilliant transition in personality and still one of my favourite moments in gaming as a whole. I just had to make a Source Filmmaker picture of this scene, but with a little twist to it as well. ; >

Gosh your SFM stuff is great. (I can't remember if I commented on your posters on dA or Steam... I think I commented on one on Steam. I'm BabyCharmander there.)

Oh my gosh Chell's expression is so, so perfect I LOVE it. It's so COOL to see her with actual expressions rather than the typical weird stare she has in-game.

How would it look like if Chell put her own head on that control machine? XD

Very nice Pic.  I, too, love portal...and in all honesty, I beat the single player a week after it came out.  I'd also have to say that it's only a spoiler if you haven't gotten past HALF of the game.

well.  when one has a max of 4 hours per day to do things it makes it a bit difficult to do that.
